Anthem MRX 1140 8K 15.2 Pre-Amplifier / 11 Amplifier Channel A/V Receiver with Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX Enhanced

15.2-Channel Processing • 11 Amplified Channels • 140 Watts per Channel • ARC Genesis Room Correction • Seven 8K HDMI Inputs • Dolby Atmos • DTS:X • IMAX Enhanced • 32-Bit/768kHz DACs

Reference-Level Anthem Home Theater Processing with Eleven Channels of Amplification

The Anthem MRX 1140 8K 15.2 Pre-Amplifier / 11 Amplifier Channel A/V Receiver is designed as the control and power center of an advanced home theater system. It combines processing for up to 15.2 channels with eleven internal amplifier channels, allowing a complete 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos system to be powered directly while retaining additional preamplifier channels for system expansion with external amplification.

Seven HDMI 2.1 inputs support 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz video, while Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX Enhanced decoding deliver precise three-dimensional audio placement. Anthem’s ARC Genesis room-correction platform, high-resolution 32-bit/768kHz DACs, flexible amplifier assignment and extensive control integration make the MRX 1140 8K equally suited to dedicated theaters, media rooms and high-performance music systems.

Highlights & Benefits

  • 15.2-Channel Processing — Supports expansive immersive-audio systems with up to fifteen main-zone channels and two independent subwoofer outputs.
  • Eleven Internal Amplifier Channels — Powers a complete 7.1.4 loudspeaker layout without requiring an external power amplifier.
  • ARC Genesis Room Correction — Measures the speakers and room, then applies advanced correction to improve tonal balance, bass integration and imaging.
  • Seven 8K HDMI Inputs — Supports 8K/60Hz, 4K/120Hz, Variable Refresh Rate and Auto Low Latency Mode for movies, streaming and gaming.
  • Flexible Amplifier Matrixing — Reassign internal channels for front-wide, height, Zone 2 or bi-amplified speaker configurations as the system evolves.

Technology & Design

ARC Genesis Room Correction — Anthem Room Correction uses a calibrated microphone and advanced software to measure the acoustic behavior of the room and connected loudspeakers. ARC Genesis can create and store up to four speaker profiles with independent speaker layouts, bass management, levels and correction settings.

15.2-Channel Object-Based Audio Processing — The Anthem MRX 1140 8K supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX Enhanced soundtracks. Its processing platform can accommodate conventional surround, front-wide and up to six height-channel speakers when supplemented with appropriate external amplification.

32-Bit/768kHz Digital Conversion — High-resolution DACs process incoming digital audio with precise timing and low noise. The circuit platform is engineered to preserve detail, dynamic contrast and spatial information across movie soundtracks, multichannel music and two-channel playback.

HDMI 2.1 Video Platform — Seven dedicated HDMI inputs handle modern video formats including 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz pass-through. Features such as VRR and ALLM support responsive gaming, while eARC allows compatible televisions to return high-resolution audio through the primary HDMI output.

FAQ — Anthem MRX 1140 8K

Can the Anthem MRX 1140 8K power a 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos system?

Yes. The Anthem MRX 1140 8K includes eleven internal amplifier channels and is configured by default to power a 7.1.4 main-zone speaker system.

Yes. ARC Genesis software and a calibrated measurement microphone are included. ARC can optimize speaker response, crossover integration, bass performance and listening-position consistency.

Does the MRX 1140 8K support 4K/120Hz gaming?

Yes. Its HDMI 2.1 platform supports compatible 4K/120Hz and 8K/60Hz video sources, along with gaming features including Variable Refresh Rate and Auto Low Latency Mode.
